Software Engineering Intern
My experience
Overview
I am on a team working on compression algorithms. Most of what we are currently doing is refactoring with some minor optimizations. I've had tasks where I'm just getting rid of compiler warnings and others where I had to link a library with the project. There is great support from my coworkers, I'm not sure how other teams are tho.
Overall, it has been a great experience and has led me to have an opportunity to work for them part time during the semester as well. I won't say that it'll be exciting every day and you'll be changing the world, but every ticket I've done so far has made a direct impact on the projects.

Interview questions
They asked some basic technical coding questions, however, there was no formal coding. But take that lightly since I was a new sophomore at the time of the interview.
Advice on how to prepare
Honestly, just if you get a contact reach out and maintain that bridge. I honestly was very lucky in getting the opportunity to interview with them since it wasn't through a formal application process. I was just given and email and contacted them saying I was interested.
